Default protect form sections only with objects in other sections

I have a document that I am working on that uses form as well as objects.
Basically the first part uses forms, and the second has Microsoft Word
Documents added. These documents are blank and are meant for others to past
long procedures into, without it effecting the total length of the original
document.
I have set up sections---1 which is used to protect the forms and 1 which is
meant to leave the rest unprotected. The forms work great, but the other
section doesn't work the way I hoped.
Basically I used other inserted word doc objects so that people can
double-click on them, opening an empty word doc, paste gobs of info, and then
come back to the original doc without it's size being effected. However, when
I protect the document, there is now no way to double-click and open these
objects.
Any suggestions?

Hi ?B?Y21hdGg=?=,

Version of Word? Are these objects positioned in-line with the text or do they
have graphic text wrap formatting applied?
